I've been playing the beta for a week now and I just finally took a bunch of screenshots to check for widescreen support.

Anyway, I know reports aren't done on betas but with the game due out in a couple weeks, I'm confident the final will behave just the same.

In-game resolutions to select from (for me):
1024x768
1152x864
1280x1024
1280x960
1280x800
1280x768
1280x720
1360x768
1440x900
1600x900
1680x1050


Screenshots (Black bars added by me):

Main menu




Game setup




Hero selection




Loading screen




Game (normal zoom)




Game (zoomed all the way out)




Game (zoomed all the way in)




You'll notice a menu on some of the game shots. That's because my screenshot key is also the menu key. Just ignore the menu.

The game isn't in beta. It's already gone gold. What this is for is publicity and for anything that pops up for a zero-day patch.

Sure, it's gold, but this is still a beta. :)

Just look at the first screenshot I provided. The graphics even say beta.

For that reason alone, it's still a beta. :D

This is defiantly an interesting game, I find it to be very simple and slow paced

Not really a fan of it at all.

This actually makes it more interesting for me. I'm getting too old for all the twitch gaming.

Managing all those squads isn't my thing. I do that at work with projects all the time...that's the LAST thing I want to do when I get home. That being said, some TF2/L4D/R6V2 are perfect for relaxing.

... curse you for leading us off topic. I do like the game, though I doubt I'd spend any time playing it...even with friends.

Props to Relic for making a fun game.

Played the beta now that it's out and free.


Eh, I'd much rather they finish up the odyssey of a beta patch they've had going since June for Company of Heroes.

Here's basically how you win a game:

As the human guys:
Get a bunch of guys that suppress the enemy, and set them up at the choke points, then mass Dreadnoughts and anti vehicle guys.
